After thinking about it and planning for it all spring, I’ve finally made it to Vancouver. I’ve got a lot that I want to talk about, but I’ll start with some basics so my readers at least know what’s going on.
Why am I here?
This one is easy. My girlfriend has been a student at Vancouver Film School (VFS) since January and will be until December. I want to enjoy my last summer as an irresponsible college student. Why the hell not go to a new place?
How long will I be here?
The current plan is for me to leave here and return home on August 7th. I’ll spend a couple weeks in Raleigh then pack it up to move back down to Atlanta.
What am I going to do here?
Well, I consider this a vacation. April, however, still has class most days, so I will need something to do during the day to keep myself from going crazy. I’ve been looking at some part time job opportunities. My job criteria is: a cool/laid back place, zero responsibility, and only work week days (no nights, no weekends period). When running over this criteria in my head, the job that seems to pop up the most is “bus boy” or the more versatile “bus boy/dishwasher”. I have no problem doing a job like this and the opportunity is actually somewhat exciting! I do have different job prospect though, cigar store clerk/salesmen (saw the ad on craigslist yesterday). I don’t even need to say how badass that job would be!
Anyway, since I’ve got time on my hands during the day, I’ll try to keep my posts more regular. I will still be on IM and will regularly check my email. I have my cell phone with me but obviously will not use it except for emergencies (I don’t want to know what Verizon would charge me for Canadian usage). I do however have a Vonage phone number that is a local Atlanta number and I have a Canadian cell phone (Virgin Mobile pay as go sort of thing). Just drop me a line if you want either of these numbers.
I’m living in a pretty swank little neighborhood and it is a lot of fun to just walk around right now and explore things. Things are different on the opposite corner of the continent and I’ll be sure to let my readers know what I find.
